He recorded a small album for his mothers birthday in 1952, the secretary thought he had a good 'thing' and wrote down his name.. And he later returned to the studio to record more in 1954 and while during a break, he started strumming to "That's all right mama" which had already been made famous by a country singer, and Sam Phillips, immediatley recognised singing this way had more of an impact then what Elvis had previously tried to record, and had Scotty Moore & Bill Black go back into the room with Elvis, and start recording.

Elvis Presley was buried in a seamless copper deposit casket, design # 21200, manufactured by the (former) National Casket Company of Boston. Twenty years befor, Elvis's mother had been buried in the same type of casket (which at the time of her death retailed at $ 8,000).
Copper deposit caskets are often described as "copper lined caskets" - a description which is misleading because it misses the big differences in production methods, weight and price of solid copper caskets versus copper deposit caskets. Solid copper caskets are welded (or soldered) from sheets of wrought copper, while copper deposit caskets are made in a time consuming electrolytic process by which molecules of copper are deposited upon a casket form. This provides the casket with extra strength and a very smooth and untarnished surface without welding seams or burns. Copper deposit caskets ususally have a wall thickness of 1/8" (3mm - about twice as thick as 48oz copper sheets) resulting in an empty weight between 600 to 800 lbs, while solid copper caskets weigh between 200 and 300 lbs. Pricewise, the difference is even bigger, although it is difficult to talk in current prices because copper deposit caskets were manufactured in the US until the end of the 1970s only. At that time, the wholesale price of a copper deposit casket was between $ 5,000 and 6,000 (plus about 1,000 for an optional silver plated exterior), while 32 oz solid copper caskets were available from around $ 500 wholesale already. Thus, the price of a copper deposit casket was about a dozen times that of the lowest priced solid copper sheet casket. The high price (as well as the enormous weight) of copper deposit caskets was exceeded only by that of cast bronze caskets (coffins which are cast from molten bronze like bells; they cost three times as much as copper deposit caskets and have a weight between 1,000 and 1,200 lbs).
Copper deposit caskets were manufactured by two companies which are no longer in business, although they once were giants of the industry: the National casket company of Boston and the Boyertown Burial Casket Company. Both firms produced several copper deposit designs (and cast bronze caskets as well).The famous National seamless copper deposit caskets had no joints or welding seams nor did the attachments of the handles penetrate the casket walls. National copper deposit caskets (of different designs) were used for the funerals of many famous persons and celebrities other than just Elvis Presley, as for example of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, newspaper magnate William Randolph Hearst, and singer Aaliyah Haughton.

That's All Right Mama-July 5, 1954
Asked by Wiki User
Elvis was always appreciative of his fame (i.e. to God, his fans, those who worked with him, his family, his manager, etc.).
Even though Elvis (sadly) could not go out in public and do "normal things" Elvis never resented this and was most certainly the most photographed, and signed the most autographs, of any entertainer who ever lived.
Elvis always questioned "why has God chosen me" and he shared with others his concern "will my fans ever remember me when I die" and "if you cut me I will bleed".
Elvis was always appreciative of the monetary benefits his fame brought him and consistently shared his money with those close to him...and even strangers. For every charitable act that Elvis performed that was made public he made many more in private.
Elvis always wanted to give his fans his best and he always said, when asked why he sang so long and performed so energetically, that "some of these people have never seen me live before and they have paid their hard earned money to see me now" and "I want to give them a show they will never forget".
GREAT QUESTION by the way.
